Today's tutelary fort remains peaceful.

Xue Cheng smiled awkwardly. This was the problem. Xue Cheng was a man after all, and King Kong was a young and beautiful girl. Even if he was determined, it would be difficult for him to stick to his original intention under such great temptation.

Reputation was considerate and didn't ask any further questions. She looked at the sky, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Master, would you like to sit over there for a while? I happen to have some medicine for injuries."

Xue Cheng agreed very straightforwardly. He was not able to move around easily now. If he delayed any longer, he would be seen by Kongo and Wisconsin coming down the mountain. God knows what they would do to him. After what happened today, Xue Cheng clearly realized that not all the ship girls in the naval base were like Yixian and Lexington. There were also radicals like Kongo.

"But my clothes and cell phone..." Xue Cheng suddenly remembered that his things were still at the beach.

Reputation took out his phone from his clothes and said, "I'll ask Counterattack to get it, Master, please rest assured."

"Okay, thank you for your help." Xue Cheng said.

"Master, what are you talking about? Shengwang's home is your home." Shengwang lowered her eyes slightly, and her tone seemed to contain a little dissatisfaction with Xue Cheng's unfamiliarity. Xue Cheng followed her gaze and saw a diamond ring on Shengwang's finger.

Xue Cheng's expression suddenly became strange. He suddenly wondered if he had been too distracted when playing games. How could a random shipgirl he met out of the blue turn out to be his wedding ship?

Xue Cheng rejected the head maid's offer to carry him on her back, and with her support, he came to the prestigious residence.

On the way, the two also met two other girls in maid outfits. There was Surrey, who was a little timid and lacked confidence after appearing as a ship girl because her construction was cancelled in history, and Shropshire, a flower maid who also had low self-confidence and whose cooking skills were only comparable to her sister London.

During the encounter, Xue Cheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, fearing that Shropshire would cook for him on a whim. Fortunately, they just exchanged a few pleasantries, looked at Xue Cheng in his swimsuit curiously, and then said goodbye and left, which made him feel relieved.

After entering the living room, Shengwang helped Xue Cheng sit on the sofa, then went into the kitchen to put down the shopping bags. When she came back, she had a pot of cold tea in her hands: "This is what I asked Miss Yixian for. Master, drink some water first. I'll go get the medicine box."

Xue Cheng nodded and watched Shengwang leave. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. He found the tea fragrant and slightly sweet, as if it had some honey added to it. It was even better than the drinks sold outside. He was a little thirsty, so he simply guzzled cup after cup. By the time Shengwang returned, he had almost drunk half of the tea.

"Shengwang's tea-making skills are very good." Xue Cheng watched Shengwang rummaging through the medicine box. He felt a little embarrassed to bother him, so he asked casually, "Did you learn this from Yixian specifically?"

Reputation squatted in front of Xue Cheng, placed his calf on her knee, holding a tube of ointment in her hand. She laughed softly and looked at Xue Cheng with a teasing look: "How can brewing this kind of herbal tea require so much technical skills? Is the master making fun of me?"

"No, I'm just not used to it, so..." Xue Cheng touched his nose and said awkwardly: "Although I always called you the head maid of prestige, I never treated you as a servant."

"Is that so?" Shengyu understood and took out a cotton swab to gently pick up some ointment and apply it on Xue Cheng's ankle: "Master, are you embarrassed because of my care?"

Seeing Xue Cheng seem to have acquiesced, Shengwang shook her head and said, "I feel a little... a little sad. Even if Shengwang is not the master's maid, she is still the master's wife. What's the big deal about doing a little thing for her husband? Why should I feel uneasy?"

Xue Cheng smiled bitterly. He had only been traveling through time for a short time, which was not enough to completely change his mindset. How could he possibly accept such an absurd thing as suddenly having dozens of wives?

"I just think that everyone is equal, and no one should take care of anyone else," Xue Cheng explained.

"No wonder the master refused to stay in the garrison before." Shengyu looked at Xue Cheng as if he was looking at a naughty child.

"..." Xue Cheng didn't say anything. He felt that if his reputation was misunderstood like this, it might be a good thing.

As they spoke, the injured ankle had been smeared with ointment. It was a little cool in the air. Shengwang cut a piece of gauze and carefully bandaged it for Xue Cheng, instructing him, "Don't let your ankle get wet in the next few days, don't eat spicy food, and don't touch the wound... Forget it, until the injury heals, Master, leave it to me to take care of it."

88. The Little Maid Strikes Back

Reputation showed a tough attitude on this issue and did not give Xue Cheng any room to refuse. Although the elegant head maid would respect her master, even she would not back down when it came to certain issues.

Shengyu carefully tied the bandage, then helped Xue Cheng lie down sideways. She did not use the pillow beside her, but placed Xue Cheng's head on her thigh. She caught a glimpse of a bruise on his arm, then took some medicated oil and dropped it on her palm, gently massaging him.

"What would you like to eat for dinner, Master?" asked Shengwei while massaging.

"It's up to you. Just follow your usual menu. I'm not picky about food." Xue Cheng's words sounded very insincere, but since he was being taken care of by the other party for nothing, he felt too embarrassed to make any more requests.

"The host is from China, so let's prepare some Chinese dishes for dinner." Shengwang seemed to see that Xue Cheng was not speaking from the heart, and he sighed slightly and said considerately.

"Shengwang can also cook Chinese food?" Xue Cheng widened his eyes. Although many secondary creative works described Shengwang as a super maid who was good at all housework, Xue Cheng never thought that she was so versatile.

"Because my training has reached its limit, I use my free time to learn various skills." Reputation looked at Xue Cheng and smiled faintly: "Didn't the master always call me the perfect and elegant head maid? I also want to live up to the master's praise."

"So reputation can really do anything?" Xue Cheng looked at her in disbelief. At first, he just followed the trend after seeing various secondary creations. For example, the reason for giving the destroyer Ayanami a ring was just because a large amount of resources were spent on a map-pushing activity but the dean could not be killed. When looking up a guide on the forum, he saw a post by an admiral who had the same problem as him, offering a bounty for the dean's head and a ring as a reward to his daughter. So he followed the trend and set a flag. Unexpectedly, in the end, it was Ayanami who killed the dean with a torpedo in a night battle.

"That's not an exaggeration." Reputation shook his head. "Learning is endless. I still have a lot to learn."

Xue Cheng took a deep breath as if he had a toothache. Shengwei's answer reminded him of those Versailles-loving academic masters in school. Even though they had a sure pass on the exam, they would pretend that they had not done well. When the report card was handed out, they would say hypocritically, "Oh, I thought I was going to fail the test, but I didn't expect that I got this question right."

Of course, she wasn't being complacent when it came to reputation. She really felt that she still had some shortcomings, but the memories that were brought back made Xue Cheng sigh.

As the two were talking, the sound of a door opening was heard from the entrance. Not long after, a girl with a similar appearance and clothing to Reputation walked in. She also had heterochromic eyes, but the color of her eyes was opposite to Reputation, and she was holding a bag in her hand.

"Master, sister, I'm back." The girl changed her shoes and walked in, placing the bag on the coffee table. Just as she was about to say something, her eyes fell on Xue Cheng's bandaged ankle. She quickly came over, looking as if she wanted to check but didn't dare to reach out. She said anxiously, "Master, are you injured? How badly? Is it serious?"

"It's just a minor injury. Mingwang has already applied medicine for me. I will be able to recover after a few days of rest." Xue Cheng looked at the girl's helpless look and hurriedly explained.

"Counterattack, calm down, look at what you're like." Reputation reached out and poked Counterattack's forehead. Although her skills as a maid were already proficient, she still couldn't stand on her own. It was because Counterattack's character was a little weak and reckless, and she lacked the ability to respond to emergencies.

"Oh, Master, I'm sorry, I'm so rude." Counterattack wanted to bow and apologize in a panic, but he didn't estimate the distance well and bumped his head against the back of the sofa. Seeing her standing there with tears in her eyes and covering her red nose, Xue Cheng and Shengwang looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

Repulse, the second ship of the Renown-class battlecruiser, was a warship built by the British Royal Navy during World War I. It was originally designed as an improved version of the Revenge-class battleship, but later had to be converted into a battlecruiser with the outbreak of fighting. It took a very short time from the start of construction to the launching. For a period of time, it was the fastest main battleship in the world with its sister Renown.

According to the information Xue Cheng found, Counterattack's several missions during World War II were not completed very perfectly. Later, after forming the Z Fleet with Indomitable and Prince of Wales, it fought against the Japanese army when the Indomitable ran aground for repairs and was unable to catch up with the main force. In the end, both it and Prince of Wales sank.

Probably because of several defeats in history, her counterattacks in the game are a bit rash, far less cool than her sister's reputation. The oath line before the transformation was even more because she received a marriage proposal and spilled tea on the admiral in a panic.

Now it seems that the counterattack is even more reckless than in the game.

"Admiral, I've got your clothes and personal belongings back for you." Counterattack covered his nose, pointed at the bag on the coffee table, and said sullenly.

"Thank you for your help, Fight Back." Xue Cheng sat up, took the bag, took out the clothes inside, and changed into them with the help of reputation. He finally felt relieved. He flipped through his phone, which contained many @ messages, and there were also missed calls from Lexington and Yixian. It seemed that what happened at the beach had been spread to the large group.

Xue Cheng opened the chat group, and as expected, there was a heated discussion about their own affairs.

Tashkent: "Today, the admiral was abducted by a crazy woman on the beach. It is suspected that he has met with an accident. Our reporters will follow up on this matter." Attached is a photo of Xue Cheng being hugged by Princess King Kong.

Fubuki: "Ah, isn't Sister Kongo too much?"

Nevada: "As expected of a hot-blooded idiot, she really dares."

Mutsu: "Didn't we all say that everyone should rely on their own abilities? Why doesn't she dare?"

Wichita: "King Kong was really quick. I didn't even have time to do anything."

Garibaldi: "?? Wichita what are you going to do?"

West Virginia: "Wichita, you're a daredevil."

Wichita: "What's wrong? Didn't we agree before that everyone would rely on their own abilities?"

Washington: "King Kong is a wedding ship, are you?"

Wichita: "What's so great about a wedding ship? It's just a ring, right? I'll buy one for the Admiral tomorrow!"

Essex: "Wasn't the Ring of Promise given to us by the Admiral?"

Cologne: "What era is this? Are you still waiting for the admiral to take the initiative? Women in this new era must take the initiative if they want to seize happiness!"

Shinano: “But…”

King Kong: "Ahahaha... I just accidentally fell asleep and just woke up. Everyone talked so much."

South Dakota (Little): "King Kong, you bastard! What did you do to the Admiral? Do you dare to tell me where you are now?"

King Kong: "Well, it's Fatty Nan. Don't get excited."

South Dakota (Little): "What did you call me, King Kong?"

89. Boys should protect themselves

Haruna: "South Dakota, you are the gorilla! The chimpanzee!"

Indiana: "King Kong level! Don't go too far!"

Lexington: "The Admiral is also in the group chat. Everyone, please stop arguing. King Kong, is the Admiral on your side? Can you let him take the call? There are some omissions in the previous resource consumption report that need his review."

King Kong: "Sorry, although I also wanted to take the admiral home, but he ran away halfway, and now I don't know where he is."

Andrea Doria: "You're lying! How could the Admiral escape once he fell into your hands? Did you hide him?"

Murasame: "Ah, I didn't expect Kongo to have such a big appetite. He's always full of energy. Is once not enough? Does he want to imprison the admiral forever and use him to vent his excess energy at any time?"

Nagato: "Murasame! You're in trouble! Who taught you to say that just now?!"

Murasame: "Nagato-sister, I know I was wrong!"

King Kong: "NO! I'm not lying! I originally wanted to bring the Admiral back, but someone interfered... It was Wisconsin. She deliberately let the Admiral escape. Now I don't know where he went. Wisconsin, you should say something too!"

Wisconsin: "Hmm? Ms. King Kong? Have we met today?"

King Kong: "Hey!"

As Wisconsin decisively tricked King Kong, the atmosphere in the group gradually became tense. Xue Cheng watched the excitement for a while until someone started discussing the target ship for tomorrow's exercise. He was about to speak up to help King Kong explain, but at this moment a piece of information caught his eye.

Reputation: "The master is on my side."

Firefly: "Ah, it's Sister Reputation!"

King George V: "Reputation? How is the admiral here with you?"

Helena: "Need I ask? It must be to avoid King Kong."

Reputation: "The master accidentally twisted his foot and needs to recuperate for a while. During this time, I will be responsible for taking care of the master's daily life. If you want to visit, please choose a representative and try not to have too many people. The master needs to rest now."

Andrea Doria: "Why limit the number of people? It's just a sprained ankle, there's no need for that kind of rest, right?"

Roma: "Don't say that, Ellie. There are so many of us. It would be tiring for the Admiral to meet everyone one by one."

Andrea Doria: "My name is not Ellie! How can you be like this in Rome?"

Richelieu: "With Reputation taking care of you, I'm sure everyone can rest assured. We will send a representative to visit the Admiral tomorrow. Please make sure Miss Reputation is prepared."

Reputation: "Please rest assured, I will take good care of the master."

Following the explanation given by the reputation, the group gradually returned to calm. Xue Cheng looked at the head maid who had put down her phone and said, "Thank you for your help, reputation."

If Xue Cheng came forward to explain himself, he would inevitably be questioned. King Kong was a person who could not hide his thoughts. If he told what happened in the afternoon, it would probably cause a commotion again. Someone with reputation came forward to change the subject. At least the matter with King Kong would not be exposed in the short term.

As for what will happen in the future, Xue Cheng feels that escaping is useful and not shameful. Perhaps with King Kong's eccentric personality, he will forget about it in a moment.

Reputation shook his head: "Master, you'd better get ready. Someone may come to visit soon."

Xue Cheng was stunned: "Uh, that shouldn't be the case? Didn't they say they would send representatives together tomorrow?"

Reputation looked at Xue Cheng deeply and sighed: "Master, do you think they will really abide by the agreement?"

Xue Cheng was silent. The answer to the question was too obvious. Apart from a few simple destroyers and submarines, no one on his wedding ship would take the so-called agreement seriously.

Shortly after the two finished their conversation, there was a knock on the door. Counterattack quickly ran to open the door, and a girl wearing a red military uniform, a black eye mask, and short golden hair tied behind her head walked in.

"Prince of Wales, you're here." Xue Cheng recognized the other person at a glance. The girl's clothing and appearance were highly similar to the portrait in the game. Coupled with the signature eye mask and plump figure, there was no one else with such characteristics.

"Admiral, how is your injury?" Prince of Wales nodded, his eyes fell on the gauze on Xue Cheng's feet, and walked over.

"It's okay, I'll be fine after taking the medicine." Xue Cheng wanted to stand up to show the other party, but was forced to sit down by the reputation.
